Not sure, but you could probably find in the XS manual, the ratio of the  middle gear and the ratio of the final drive.  Multiply middle ratio by final ratio to give reduction ratio of gearbox output to final drive output and then look around for sprocket tooth combination to give the same reduction.

Well, the sprockets can be changed on this to whatever your requirements are.

Stuart Garvie's (from South Australia) conversion would still have to be the neatest, strongest unit on the market.
Built for racing so you know it is tough.

I,m all for it stevo, hand designed, hand built, ridden by self,

if you can find strength in design and end up with less unsprung wieght, thats got to be a good thing,,

they make 11 tonne prime movers to pull 47 tonne,, but can also make a 9 1/2 tonne p.mover to pull 50 tonne,,strength thru design,,

 lots of people said half my ideas wouldn,t work either,  if it works, great,,,,,, if not you go back to where it failed, and start again,, you,ve lost nothing but a bit of time and maybe some  coin

my 5c,, keep plodding along
